THAT'S NOT (!) Russian pit-stop

wow, nice pics - that's something i've never seen : DTM cars on the road. Those cars really look very good - so aggressively designed. and some nice pics of moscow too.

[Sm@ck]

my girlfriend studies there. Maybe a good time to visit her again

That would be cool, but the pictures of Sobor Vasiliya Blazhennogo always disturb me...knowing the history behind them.


DTM would be cool. But F1 would be even better....considering the wide streets we might actually see some passing........SIlverstone, the Russian version lol.

Seeing DTM racers power through your own city would be so damn sweet. That'll definitely be a very picturesque race. How well are the cars going to cope with the brick streets?

^ - ^ wow, that's quite a pic. what a sight that would be. i'd really like more urban/street racing - set it up, and ppl can watch from office buildings, restaurants etc... i think it could really make the sport grow.

^^that would make it like 2F2F or NFSU2 or something. and it would be sort of dangerous i mean an old lady not knowing walking across the street. out of no where a 500hp DTM beast comes charging not around her but through her

that would be so entertaining... just like NASCAR with turns!

[ikon2003]

oh, no, i mean like set up proper like and all.... a la Monaco F1 style. sponsorship etc.

(btw, i'm really annoyed how vodafone gets to sponsor alll the cars in dtm... it kinda makes me hate adverts. it's like no matter who wins, it's a vodafone car! i prefer individual sponsors.... competition between sponsors is cool too...ie: HP goes on BMW, Dell goes on some other car, so it's not just car vs car, but company vs company... just makes for more competition... slightly off topic, but i think it would make racing better. esp DTM in this case"

Assuming that everything will go as planned, the DTM urban race over there would be great considering that streets are wide.

[findleybeast]

are all the roads around there brick? or just the area used for the photoshoot? Brick would make a very interesting surface to race on...
